Hello Michael and Co,
Can you please suggest any periodic code for quantum confinement effect? And
how can confinement and surface effects be neglected, in such case what will be
implication. please elaborate.
With kind regards
Mohammed

Hello Mohammad,
It all depends what you want to do. Wien2k is optimal for
calculating properties of periodic structures, so it is mostly
recommended for bulk.
For confinement effects aperiodic code is recommended. However it
is unlikely you will ever be able to calculate optical properties
of anything larger than a small cluster aperiodically
(extrapolation is of course a useful tool).
I myself do use periodic DFT to estimate surface adsorption on
colloidal quantum dots, so you'll have to pick the right tool for
whatever you are interested in.
Regards,
Michael Sluydts
